Will My Old Air Springs Work With My 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4x4?
Question:
I have a set of air springs I would like to swap to another vehicle and was wondering if all I needed was a mounting bracket kit. The spring number is A01-760-6410. The vehicle is a 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4x4. I believe they came out of a 2012 Toyota Tundra. Thanks,

We do have air spring kits that will fit your 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 4x4, but unfortunately the old air springs you have are not compatible.
If you have a heavy duty 1500 4x4, then I would recommend the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs, # F2190. These springs are adjustable from 5 psi to 100psi and maximize safe load-carrying capacity while increasing stability and improving the overall ride quality.
If you have a light duty 1500 4x4, you would need the Air Lift Ride Control Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle # AL59501. These air springs are adjustable from 5 psi to 100 psi and will function in a very similar manner. I've attached a video for you of this installation.
